A few women on my social media circle posted about the overturning of Roe V Wade. But generally speaking it's been relatively quiet. I don't think most people really care about politics these days, or decisions from politics. It's sad, but I feel true. Those that are concerned and speaking up seem blindsided as if they haven't been paying attention the last 5 years. Some of the women were Trump supporters and appear to lack any ability to draw a connection between the two. I wonder if there is anything that will wake people up in this country and say woah what the gently caress. We as a nation are going in the wrong direction. Snowden's revelations of govt/corp spying barely moved the needle. Trump engaged and motivated a minority of the population, and 1/3 it barely mattered to. Roe v Wade doesn't really seem to be as big of a deal to most Americans as I envisioned. I'm sure they'll be surprised when a fetus personhood bill is put before the SC in a year or two and all abortion becomes illegal. Most people generally don't understand a solid 30% of the country absolutely wants to dominate the other 70% in any way they can at best. And a subset of that would be fine killing any people that oppose their installation of fascism. It feels very hopeless tbh. It's damned near impossible to leave this country for any other country that's worth a damned. I don't have $500k to move to Europe to buy property there. So I guess I'm hosed.

What place isn't expensive at this point. I live just outside of Nashville and 700 square foot 1bed 1bath are going for $1900/month. I fuckin get it why people are moving to Mexico city. This country is straight up unaffordable unless you want to live in the middle of nowhere. I'm sorry, but Tennessee is a poo poo hole and I only moved here for work, but I'd never consider buying a house here, and will look to move again in a year or two, but seriously where do you go at this point? Traditionally people moved to the south because it was cheaper than the Northern states, but $1900/m is lo-loving-l. Slap on top of that student loans, car payment, etc. I make decent money, but I'm never going to be able to consider starting a family or any major life decision at this rate. I seriously have no idea how people that make 40-50k are making it.

Failed Imagineer posted:As an Irish person, 80% of the country isn't Catholic in any meaningful sense. There are historical reasons for people ticking that box on the census, but essentially noone <70yo gives a poo poo about religion I fuckin wish. Here in TN it's Catholic/ Christian everything. On anything dating "Jesus is #1". I want my work experience and to get the gently caress out because I'll die single if I stay here longer than I need to.

I went to a state university, didn't know poo poo about money. Had every angle of society tell me I had to have a college degree, and now I'm super hosed with college debt until a parent passes away and I can sell a house. I had zero guidance from either parent on what the actual costs of college were, how to pay for it, etc. Other than just go to college. Literally any chance of building a future right now is on hold because of it. I make decent money right now, but still can't think of buying a house, or starting a family. I'm focusing on building career skills because in the short term is the only real option. Another 15-20k/yr would help quite a bit. It's my own doing, I get it, but at 18-22 I literally had no concept of what I was doing to future me. A 10k option from Biden is laughable in my situation, but I know it would be big for other people.

Question, when Moore vs Harper is decided in the next 4-8 months, if it turns out that state judiciary can decide elections(I believe this is what is being angled for) what's the option after that? Obviously the SC would have ruled, but I mean for the average citizen, the political institutions, democracy. It seems like if the SC goes one way on this that the experiment is sort of over?

Thom12255 posted:The Fed can't really help this as rate increases reduce new house builds which leads to more people being pushed to rent which keeps rentals increasing in price - it's a really bad cycle that needs a bunch of government intervention to control, the Fed really can't solve this itself. I got a survey today from my apartment complex as I'll be coming up on my lease ending soon. My rent started at $1700, is now $2050, and I'd imagine would be $2250ish next lease. poo poo fuckin rocks.
